Me too, but mine was a blue and white 2dr 210 in 1966. Same 265 powerglide, which was soon replaced by a 283 and a 3-speed with a Hurst Mystery shifter and later a Muncie 4-speed and several other motors. I eventually sold it to help make a down-payment on a home. Seemed like a good idea at the time and I don't regret doing that, but I wish I had it back.

Hi

I came home from the hospital in a sky blue 1961 Plymouth 4 door Fury II with horizontal fins. I don't miss that one so much, but the first car I ever drove (at 14) was a 1968 Plymouth Barracuda. I only got to drive it ONCE before the engine fell off the mounts across the street from a Plymouth dealer and Dad showed up with a 1974 Plymouth Scamp. Didn't like Dad much for a few years after that...

I was brought home in Dad's 1977 Ford LTD wagon. Mom's lemon of an 81 Eagle had the starter go (by this time the car was on its 3rd engine, I believe) and they hospital said they had to bring a better car before they'd release me lol
